Used: The "skill" spots Empty Used: The "skill" spots

Post by RustyDios Tue Apr 28, 2009 9:17 am

I'm guessing that the various spots that people can climb/jump/swim/fish at are placed through an invisble object placeable, and "use" of the placeable runs the required scripts needed...

Well as these spots are only visible by use of the "Tab" key, I'm making a minor suggestion (that has large consequences)... change the appearance of these spots to a minor VFX placeable appearances... this gives those not walking around hitting tab every few steps an inkling they are there... the suggested visual will still be a small one requiring people to actually look still.... ...

The appearances I was thinking of were the VFX: Fountain 1, VFX: Mystical 3 or VFX: Sparkles 1 .... all are relatively low-key visuals, with a number of different colours to choose from....

This method seems the easiest to me, without the use of lots of combat-log pop-ups (such as the case with most fishing spots).. and in time would be accepted simply as "player-aid" rather than "actual in-game" magic shows.... ....
